If there is a /usr partition, /usr/share will be part of it. So, separate /usr/share is exactly as common s/as separate /usr.
No, by "separate /usr/share" I (and Philip I guess, please correct me if I am wrong) mean "separate from /usr".
/usr/share has architecture independent files which are architecture independent only because they are not binaries. No documentation is architecture dependent!
/usr/share does not contain only documentation, but also shell scripts and data files for many programs.

How common is it to have a separate /usr/share and what is the rationale for it ?
